To the community,
Following the recent revival of this thread, I would
like to express my gratitude for the continued interest
in the GhostLine project, as outlined in the original
white paper. The core vision—leveraging the information
- -theoretic security of the One-Time Pad (OTP) within a
practical, multi-participant framework—remains unchanged.
Today, I am pleased to share significant progress on three
critical fronts that strengthen both the integrity and the
practicality of the system.
1. The Foundation: True Entropy from Atmospheric Noise
The absolute security of an OTP is contingent upon the quality
of its key material. To this end, GhostLine now generates all
OTPs from a source of genuine, non-deterministic entropy: captured
atmospheric noise. This provides a robust foundation of randomness,
far removed from algorithmic pseudo-random generators. I am pleased
to report that every single OTP used in our production-grade tests
has successfully passed the DieHarder statistical test suite,
confirming the high entropy and statistical randomness essential for
unconditional secrecy.
2. Expanding Utility: Secure File Exchange
Recognizing that communication extends beyond text, GhostLine now
supports secure file exchange. This feature extends the same OTP-based,
information-theoretic security guarantee to document sharing, providing
users with a unified platform for confidential multimedia and data
transfer.
3. The Key Challenge: Toward Practical Key Distribution
The principal hurdle for any OTP system has always been the secure and
practical distribution of keys. While in-person exchange remains the gold
standard, we are engineering a solution for scalable, remote scenarios.
To this end, development has commenced on a hybrid key-exchange mechanism
utilizing the CRYSTALS-Kyber post-quantum algorithm. The approach is
designed as follows:
Kyber is employed solely for the secure initial negotiation and exchange
of the OTP keys.
All subsequent communication is then encrypted
using the exchanged, true-entropy OTPs.
This paradigm ensures that the long-term threat
of quantum decryption is confined to the key exchange layer,
which itself is quantum-resistant. The actual communication
retains the timeless, mathematical secrecy of the One-Time Pad.
These advancements represent concrete steps in transforming a
theoretical ideal into a functional, resilient system. The journey
continues, and I welcome further discussion on these developments.
Thank you for your attention.
Sincerely,
Battosai
